- Own well-defined machine learning projects from data exploration and model development through validation, deployment, and iteration.
- Build and improve predictive, recommendation, ranking, segmentation, uplift, and customer-value models for customer personalization and decisioning.
- Prepare datasets, define modeling targets, develop features, and ensure data quality for training and evaluation.
- Design and analyze A/B tests, holdouts, and offline evaluations to measure model performance and business impact.
- Work with engineering, product, analytics, and business partners to integrate models into production and improve them based on results and feedback.
- Use AI coding assistants, automation, and reusable tools to improve the speed, quality, and consistency of modeling and analytical workflows.
Requirements
- Degree requirements are flexible. A technical degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Statistics, Mathematics, Operations Research, Economics, Engineering, or a related field is helpful, but equivalent practical experience is equally valued.
- Applied ML and model development: Two or more years of professional experience in applied machine learning, data science, ML engineering, applied statistics, or a related field, including experience building and evaluating models with real-world data.
- Data analytics: Experience analyzing behavioral, transactional, product, marketing, or customer data and translating findings into practical insights or recommendations.
- Experimentation: Experience defining success metrics, analyzing experiments, evaluating model performance, and interpreting business impact.
- Collaborative delivery: Experience working with engineering, product, analytics, or business partners to deploy or apply data-driven solutions.
- Relevant specialization: Experience with personalization, recommendation, ranking, uplift modeling, causal inference, contextual bandits, pricing, or lifecycle decisioning is a plus.
- Machine learning and modeling: Strong Python skills and practical knowledge of supervised learning, model selection, hyperparameter tuning, evaluation, and performance analysis.
- Data processing and feature engineering: Strong SQL skills and experience using platforms such as BigQuery, Spark, or similar tools for data extraction, cleaning, preprocessing, exploration, and feature development.
- Analytics and experimentation: Strong analytical and statistical reasoning, including A/B testing, holdout design, statistical significance, incrementally, and business-impact measurement.
- Technical tools and workflows: Familiarity with common ML libraries, cloud data or ML platforms, version control, and AI-assisted development tools.
- Ownership mindset: Takes responsibility for assigned work, follows through on commitments, and proactively addresses issues.
- Business-impact orientation: Connects modeling and analysis to customer experience and measurable outcomes.
- AI-first builder mindset: Enjoys modeling, analyzing, automating, and shipping while using AI tools to improve productivity and quality.
- Growth mindset: Learns quickly, seeks feedback, and continuously develops technical and business knowledge.
- Clear, collaborative communication: Communicates ideas, assumptions, results, and challenges effectively with technical and non-technical partners.
